Headlights are H4 bulbs and fogs are H3. Totally different type of bulbs, therefore they cannot be interchangeable. As far as the fog light rewire, you must wire it to your parking light circiut. If you're car is equipped with fogs, just open the hood, find the fog relay and cut the yellow wire with the 2 silver tracers. Splice this wire to the turn signal parking light wire (red wire with 2 yellow tracers). There's a write-up on this, meaning the wireing colors may be different on other years, so search is your friend.
